Tonedeaf?

I sense this an example of a Senator who has lost touch with the current political dynamic. Republicans had garnered an opening against President Obama and the Dems. Actions like this are going to play tight into the Presidents narrative. We'll see if he can capitalize on it. Shelby's saving grace here may be this is the Friday before the Superbowl.


It will be interredting to see this play out.
